As some of you know ,tragically my beautiful young daughter died suddenly & unexpectedly during the night 1/9/17 from an undiagnosed heart condition (SADS)

I have tried to raise awareness & we've already had a screening day in her memory, but the amount of children & youngsters losing their lives to these hidden conditions is so high (& thought to be higher than documented) I believe much more should be done.

Would any of you please be willing sign this petition?
The deadline is tomorrow & we are a bit short !

TIA !

Signed.

I'm not Welsh but I live in Wales.

Maybe change your title to say 'People who live in Wales' as I nearly didn't bother to read your thread /post as I'm not Welsh.

I'm sorry for your loss. It is admirable that you are wanting to help others.

I'm so sorry for your loss @isseywithcats ,it is devastating for the whole family Thanks

Thank you everyone who has signed,every signature counts & also raises awareness about these conditions.
Many people don't know about SADS or other hidden heart conditions,we didn't until we lost Ash .

No family should go through this & a simple ECG can pick up most of these conditions.

I can’t because I live in England so I’ve made a donation instead. Sorry to hear about your daughter. X

Signed and shared.
My friend lost her 18 year old while playing footie with his mates, so tragic.

Troels · 21/03/2019 16:04

I shared on facebook too.

WatcherOfTheNight · 21/03/2019 16:50

Thank you so much @Troels ,so sorry to hear of your friends son Thanks
Many hidden cardiac deaths are youngsters who are sporty ,like my daughter & your friends son.
Welsh Hearts who started the petition are working towards having defibs available at all training grounds etc.
Also trying to get them at Schools,colleges & universities .
They donated one to my children's primary & will be donating one for DSs secondary school too.

I've signed and shared on Facebook. How many signatures does it need?

WatcherOfTheNight · 21/03/2019 17:18

Thank you so ,so much everyone who's signed & shared ! ♥️

I'm not sure how many @donajimena

but it's been running since January & was still 1.500 short this morning.
Thankfully,there's been a lot more interest & sharing the last 24 hours or so . I'm keeping everything-crossed that it'll reach target!
